Meet the Staff
Director's Message
At Camp Cherith Lanark you can expect a warm welcome, some awesome memories made and friends that will last a life time! Campfires, great food, learning new skills and further developing old ones. Amidst the beauty of Gods creation you will be encouraged to consider, reflect and discuss your spiritual journey. Did I mention kayaking and archery?!

Staff and Counsellors
Our multi-generational staff is a combination of volunteers, year-round workers, and young people 16+. We seek to build a team that includes a solid core of repeat staff from a variety of cultural backgrounds, experiences, and Christian affiliations. A week is set aside at the beginning of summer for staff training in our program and philosophy, to get to know one another and build our team. Staff learn how to meet the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of campers, build healthy relationships, and help campers discover Christ in the context of His creation.

Creating a Place for Everyone: Jeremy’s Journey at Camp Cherith
Here at Camp Cherith, we have been working hard at finding new and creative ways to help those on the autism spectrum to come and enjoy Camp, while having a safe impactful time. Young Jeremy (name changed for privacy reasons) has been coming for the last few years with growing success. Through good communication with Mom and the patient care of our wonderful staff, Jeremy has gone from only being able to handle an hour or two of camp to thriving for an entire week. We are so thankful for this small success and our thankful for the partnership we have with his family. Working together, Jeremy is making life long memories!
